" dee quit pacing you're not making me more nervous then i already am! " nova yells, his leg bouncing up and down.

dee stops, and turns towards him. He sighs, knowing he should've never said anything. " how the fuck you want me to stop pacing? HUH? We buried him nova, and they found him. If we left just one trace of anything, we are done for. They won't care about anything we have to say we are done for. So my pacing should be the last of your worries "

" it's jus- "

" ITS JUST NOTHING NOVA. NOTHING. Just shutup. " she snaps. " StOp PaCiNg " she scoffs.

Oh she done lost her fucking mind. Nova chuckles bitterly , before getting up and walking towards her.

Her pacing is cut short by being pinned against the wall. " before I even say what I have to say I'll count to thirty and let you calm down and lose your lil attitude "

She does nothing besides folding her arm as he counts calmly.

" okay first of all we both freaking out, and it can't happen. We need to stay as calm as possibly so that's done. Second, I don't care what the situation may be but don't ever take your nervousness or anger out on me. I'm not your child, I'm your boyfriend. Lose the attitude because that's not gonna do anything but make things work. Got it? " he asks, letting go of her arms.

He watches as her demeanor changes, but is confused when her eyes begin to water.

" it's oka- "

" it's not " she cries. " it's just.. I'm scared. I don't want to go to jail and I don't want you to go to jail.. you too cute for jail " she pouts. He chuckles as he continues to listen to her rant.

" you moved down here to start a new life, and I dragged you into mines. Now we both might end up in a horrible place for it, we won't ever see each other, i'm gonna have our baby in jail, we won't ever get married and I'll be friends with people names scarface and poundcake " she goes on. " we won't even get to travel th- "

" dee? " nova cuts her off.

" huh? "

He looks away, trying to cope with what he just heard. " what did you just say? "

" we won't get to travel the world? "

" before that "

" I'll be friends with poundcake an- "

" before that "

" we won't ever ge- "

" DIAMOND! " he screams.

" can you not scream? " she says quietly, beginning to play with her fingers.

" can you tell me why the hell you just said you're gonna have our baby in jail? Or did you not just say that? "

" juli " she sighs. Before she could get another word out he stops her." don't juli me, and try put up a sweet voice because that shit will get you nowhere right now. We having a baby? "

She lets out a over dramatic huff, before beginning to rub her temple. " mhm "

" and how long you knew this?. " she takes a deep gulp as he steps closer, leaving no space between the two. " a month "
